An Email Application with Active Spoof Monitoring and Control
2016 International Conference on Computer Communication and Informatics (ICCCI -2016), Jan. 07 – 09, 2016, Coimbatore, INDIA An Email Application with Active Spoof Monitoring and Control T.P. Fowdur, Member IEEE and L.Veerasoo [email protected] [email protected] Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering University of Mauritius Mauritius Abstract- Spoofing is a serious security issue for email overview of some recent anti-spoofing mechanisms is now applications. Although several anti-email spoofing techniques presented have been developed, most of them do not provide users with sufficient control and information on spoof attacks. In this paper In [11], the authors proposed an anti-spoofing scheme for IP a web-based client oriented anti-spoofing email application is packets which provides an extended inter-domain packet filter proposed which actively detects, monitors and controls email architecture along with an algorithm for filter placement. A spoofing attacks. When the application detects a spoofed security key is first placed in the identification field of the IP message, it triggers an alert message and sends the spoofed header and a border router checks the key on the source message into a spoof filter. Moreover, the user who has received packet. If this key corresponds to the key of the target packet, the spoofed message is given the option of notifying the real sender of the spoofing attack. In this way an active spoof control the packet is considered valid, else it is flagged as a spoofed is achieved. The application is hosted using the HTTPS protocol packet. A Packet Resonance Strategy (PRS) which detects and uses notification messages that are sent in parallel with email different types of spoofing attacks that use up the resources of messages via a channel that has been secured by the Secure the server or commit data theft at a datacenter was proposed in Socket Layer (SSL) protocol. -

Cases of IP Address Spoofing and Web Spoofing —
3-3 StudiesonCountermeasuresforThwarting SpoofingAttacks—CasesofIPAddress SpoofingandWebSpoofing— MIYAMOTO Daisuke, HAZEYAMA Hiroaki, and KADOBAYASHI Youki This article intends to give case studies for of thwarting spoofing attack. Spoofing is widely used when attackers attempt to increase the success rate of their cybercrimes. In the context of Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, IP address spoofing is employed to camouflage the attackers’ location. In the context of social engineering, Web spoofing is used to persuade victims into giv- ing away personal information. A Web spoofing attacker creates a convincing but false copy of the legitimate enterprises’ web sites. The forged websites are also known as phishing sites. Our research group developed the algorithms, systems, and practices, all of which analyze cybercrimes that employ spoofing techniques. In order to thwart DoS attacks, we show the deployment scenario for IP traceback systems. IP traceback aims to locate attack source, regardless of the spoofed source IP addresses. Unfortunately, IP traceback requires that its sys- tems are widely deployed across the Internet. We argue the practical deployment scenario within Internets of China, Japan, and South Korea. We also develop a detection method for phishing sites. Currently, one of the most important research agenda to counter phishing is improving the accuracy for detecting phishing sites. Our approach, named HumanBoost, aims at improving the detection accuracy by utilizing Web users’ past trust decisions. Based on our subject experiments, we analyze the average detection accuracy of both HumanBoost and CANTINA. Keywords IP spoofing, Web spoofing, Internet emulation, IP traceback, Machine learning 1 Introduction measures. IP traceback aims to locate attack sources, regardless of the spoofed source IP DoS attacks exhaust the resources of addresses. -
On the Security of Single Sign-On
On the Security of Single Sign-On Vladislav Mladenov (Place of birth: Pleven/Bulgaria) [email protected] 30th June 2017 Ruhr-University Bochum Horst G¨ortz Institute for IT-Security Chair for Network and Data Security Dissertation zur Erlangung des Grades eines Doktor-Ingenieurs der Fakult¨atf¨urElektrotechnik und Informationstechnik an der Ruhr-Universit¨atBochum First Supervisor: Prof. Dr. rer. nat. J¨org Schwenk Second Supervisor: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Felix Freiling www.nds.rub.de Abstract Single Sign-On (SSO) is a concept of delegated authentication, where an End- User authenticates only once at a central entity called Identity Provider (IdP) and afterwards logs in at multiple Service Providers (SPs) without reauthenti- cation. For this purpose, the IdP issues an authentication token, which is sent to the SP and must be verified. There exist different SSO protocols, which are implemented as open source libraries or integrated in commercial products. Google, Facebook, Microsoft and PayPal belong to the most popular SSO IdPs. This thesis provides a comprehensive security evaluation of the most popular and widely deployed SSO protocols: OpenID Connect, OpenID, and SAML. A starting point for this research is the development of a new concept called malicious IdP, where a maliciously acting IdP is used to attack SSO. Generic attack classes are developed and categorized according to the requirements, goals, and impact. These attack classes are adapted to different SSO proto- cols, which lead to the discovery of security critical vulnerabilities in Software- as-a-Service Cloud Providers, eCommerce products, web-based news portals, Content-Management systems, and open source implementations. -
